Nice, I always love white FD's. How was the fit on the body kit? Was there much to make work or did it fit really well.

Thats wonderful

some tips

have me polish your throttle body it sticks out!
Make a new intercooler pipe from the turbo to the intercooler that looks frigen rediculous

you should tilt the turbo outlet straight up and then have a nice pipe made. You can do it with 1 90 mandrel elbow and 1 foot of straight pipe.

And white fds are the best what kinda hp did you put down?

1st of all.
No where in my Post did I say I "wanted" or
was going to put "ON" these rims on my
FD or any other FD

I was wondering if anyone had them on or NOT
and if so to post pics..

For all you presumptious/pretentious/righteous
FD owners.. Kiss my ****..
" To each their OWN "

So if all you are so righteous ones crying about
function and etc.. I wonder, any of you got
rear diffusers?? aftermarket a/f Gauge?
aftermarket Shift *****, or fancy carbon fiber interiors
or even Rotor oil caps.. or how about them POS's
headlight cover with vents
gullwing doors, or them
fancy clear/euro side markers .. the list goes on.
GUESSS what??
under your definition.. YOU ARE ALL RICE..
SELL YOUR FD AND GET A CIVIC.. BETTER YET
A NEON.

FYI.. My FD got 19's, so what???
19x8.5 front 19.5x 9.5 in the rear
with pzeros.. Mekrah seducers.
and Yes they cost more than half you ****
talkers FD's worth.

For all you Fockers that talking all this **** about
rice and etc.. my FD wasa heavily modded twin
with everything and all reliability mods.
My motor poped at 130k miles.
currently w/ streetported Reman, T78, FMIC,
1600 secondaries and the whole 9 yards.
With fresh Mazdaspeed body kit and paint.

So all you jealous righteous fockers can all
Hug my nuts.. and instead of typing it
BRING IT.. I'll show you what my RICED out FD
can do.. BTW i replace my 19' rears with
my STOCK with MICKY ET STREETS..

FUMAnCHU..
why so much jealousy and hate??
Jealous you can't do **** to your FD, because
you to busy flippign burgers at McD's???
Gotta save your allowance to buy an intake??
Stop sweating my NUTS.. Because you a CLOWN,
with ***** envy..

and btw.. AUTO FD's are POS, STILL
and the guy with that THREAD, gues what
decided to do Manual Swap.. so how you like
me NOW?? bizzzzacchh..

Looks nice... Definitely need to redo the turbo to I/C pipe, and lower it a bit.

Otherwise it's sweet.

yeah id like to know too.. There is absolutely nothign wrong with this car,, even the farking bodykit is mazdaspeed.. You guys have to lighten up, this rice business is so stupid, especially when theres obviously nothing rice about it.

I have 17s on my car therefore should i be scared of posting pics of it for fear of being labelled.

Fumanchu you are an *******.
I would like to know/see what you have.
you still an assclown.

Surge
- know of any place I can buy that turbo to intercooler piping??
or does it have to be fabricated?? as a matter of fact can you make me one?

As far as Rice goes. maybe maybe not, but i like it.
and it does have some go for the show.

As far as HP numbers go. I don't know. I haven't been tuned yet.
But I am hoping/expecting to be in the 400-450 hp range @15psi.
Im expect it to be enough to make it a 11second car.

SlingShotRX7,

You can buy good (but expensive) piping from: http://www.burnsstainless.com/

Most people just buy a 90/180 degree bend(s) and then cut/weld what they need.

yeah I could make it for you if I was able to work on your car. It is hard to get the exact measurements of elevation etc without being right at the car.

I ordered 2 90 mandrel angles and 2 straight feet of 2 3/4 aluminum from www.atpturbo.com and cut and welded it and then shaved down the welds and Im going to polish the piping some weekend. Its fairly tricky to do so find an experienced fabricator. I'm about to get mine tuned I am hoping for 475rw on racegas and even 380rw will do for streetdriving. I want to keep the boost to 13ish or least low because its my daily driver!

again nice work your car is a top example!!

If you wanted a kit car, why didn't you just build one instead of ruining an FD? That's the tackiest looking 3rd gen. I've seen since spoolinRX's eyesore with the Barfex body kit.

Sling 'ol buddy... can you give me some more info on these rims. In earlier posts you said "they cost more than half you **** talkers FD's worth". I ran a google search and did not come up with one single site on the entire world online community. What makes them so special? Made out of Jesus's ******* or something?

I think the FD looks good. I'm not sure why people are saying it's rice.. I'm sure SlingShot put alot of hard work and money in that thing. Dang, it sucks that people have to bash on others who put alot of dedication into their cars. C'mon guys, I'm sure he started this thread so that he could hear some nice comments about his FD.. maybe even some constructive criticism... I mean, WE ARE ON A RX7 FORUM. We might expect this from the supra or the wrx guys.. but not our own breed.

Jimlab, I'm sorry but it always seems like you need provide such a negative comment.. I'm sure you could've told Slingshot that you didn't like his rx7 in a nicer way, hehe, but you didn't, so that's why you're Jim.
